    Abstract: A door controlling device for opening and closing a door in a wall has a first arm, one end of which is mounted to the wall and the other end of which is pivotally attached to the second end of a second arm. The first end of the second arm is pivotally attached to the top of a door and is adapted for rotation about a horizontal axis at the first end thereof. An electric motor attached to the device has a shaft which drives a gear train, and an output shaft of the gear train is connected to the input end of an electrically operated clutch. The output shaft of the clutch is connected to the first end of one of the arms such that upon the simultaneous engagement of the clutch and the energizing of the motor, that arm will be rotated about the horizontal axis at the first end and will cause the door to be opened or closed. Also, a current measuring device for determining whether the motor is drawing on excessive amount of electric current, a door open sensor for generating a signal when the door is in a fully opened position, and a door closed sensor for generating a signal when the door is in a fully closed position are all connected to a computer to control the opening and closing of a door.

    Abstract: An automatic gate operator includes an electric drive motor coupled by a drive train to a movable gate, and includes provision for measuring the coasting distance which the gate moves after shut off of the drive motor. This coasting distance varies both with the weight and momentum of the gate in comparison to frictional drag of the gate hardware, and the drag provided by the gate operator with the drive motor shut off, and also varies in response to a great number of other variables many of which are unpredictable. These other variables include such factors as wind, weather, temperature, wear, adequacy of lubrication, time interval since last operation of the gate operator, and off-level installation of the gate, for example. However, the coasting distance is measured and recorded, and is subsequently used as a predictor of gate coast on subsequent operation of the gate operator in order to coast the gate to a stop precisely at a selected limit position. The prediction improves with experience, and compensates over time for progressive changes in the operating circumstances and conditions of the gate.

    Abstract: A rotary drive for swinging a heavy member between two extreme positions. The drive transmits a rotary force provided by a motor or similar device through a first rotatable shaft to a second rotatable shaft perpendicular to the first shaft and connected to the heavy member. The second shaft rotates in an oscillatory manner between the extreme positions in response to rotation of the first shaft. The member may thus be positioned at any suitable location in its travel by operating the motor unidirectionally. The first shaft rotates about a first axis of rotation and rotates an arm about a second axis of rotation that intersects the first axis at an angle between zero and 90 degrees non-inclusive. The arm is connected to a universal joint having three mutually perpendicular axes. The universal joint transmits forces from the arm to the second shaft.

    Abstract: The present invention is provided with a mechanism for controlling the opening and closing of a door comprising a speed reduction means for reducing a rotational speed. A high speed shaft is connected to the speed reduction means and is connectable to a means for rotating the input shaft, and a low speed output shaft is connected to the speed reduction means. A governor is mounted on the input shaft for limiting the rotational speed thereof, to also regulate the rotational speed of the output shaft. A brake is provided for preventing rotation of the output shaft, and a self-closing mechanism is operatively connected to the door. The self-closing mechanism is adapted for storing energy when the door is opened to an open position, and a connecting means operatively connects the output shaft to the self-closing mechanism. A releasing means is provided for releasing the brake to permit rotation of the output shaft under the urging of the self-closing mechanism whereby the self-closing mechanism releases the energy stored therein so as to close the door to a closed position when the brake is released by the releasing means.

    Abstract: A displacement device for use with windows and sliding roof for motor vehicles includes a toothed rack disposed within the vehicle in a direction parallel to the displacement direction. A motor-gear housing is positioned adjacent the toothed rack and includes an electrical driver, a central shaft positioned perpendicular to the rack, and a pinion gear on the shaft that is engaged with the toothed portion of the rack. The rack and housing include guide surfaces that are positioned to correspond with one another. A guidance element is attached to the housing and the rack is interposed between the guide surfaces of the housing and the guidance element to control and guide the movement of the housing vis-a-vis the rack during activation of the electrical drive. Attachments extend from the housing and are configured to accommodate placement of an edge portion of a window therein. A flexible ribbon-like electrical power cable extends from the housing in a direction parallel with the window and rack and is configured in a loop to minimize the space required within the vehicle for displacement operation of the housing and window.

    Abstract: A keyless system for quickly and conveniently securing the storage area of a delivery type truck against unauthorized entry and theft while the driver is away from the truck making a delivery or pickup. In reaching a delivery point or approaching the truck after a pickup, the driver actuates a portable transmitter to generate a wireless signal which is received and processed by a receiver within the truck and which unlocks and opens the access door to the storage area. Upon exit from the storage area after selecting or depositing a package, the driver simply taps a switch located in the cab of the truck to generate a signal which causes the access door to close and lock automatically. Securement of the rear cargo loading door also is controlled by use of the portable transmitter to generate a further signal for operating the loading door lock.

    Abstract: A passenger van tailgate hinged for swinging movement about a horizontal axis at its upper edge is forced upward to open by a pair of spring devices under the control of a powered actuator operating through cables. The actuator is mounted on the tailgate and includes an electric motor drivingly connected by a worm shaft and worm gear and additional reduction gearing to a pulley on which the cables are wound. The cables are secured at one end to the vehicle structure, extend along side the respective spring devices, and are wound at their other end in the same direction on the pulley. The tailgate is opened by operating the actuator motor to unwind the cables and allow the spring devices to open the tailgate at a rate determined by the speed of the motor. The tailgate is closed by operating the actuator motor in reverse to rewind the cables and compress the spring devices. A clutch maintains a drive connection between the worm gear and pulley to effect normal tailgate operation and is adapted to slip to allow manually applied force on the tailgate to operate same when the motor is not operating. There is also provision for shutting the actuator motor off when the tailgate encounters an obstacle during closure.
